Coriolis DP flow

In this hydrocarbon transfer application from ship into storage tank (8’’ pipe) our customer rated the technical comparison between Coriolis and DP flow as visualized in the graphic.

We help obtain your targets, such as attaining peak performance with reduced operational costs no matter which process or application. With our technologies we provide you accurate data and reduced maintenance efforts, resulting in reduced downtime during calibration and proof testing. Our global service and sales forces are located in your region and ensure you get the complete support needed, from choosing the right sensor through to maintenance concepts.

• Safe in-process cleaning and calibration as well as self diagnostics and effortless proof testing with integrated Heartbeat Technology • Unplanned shutdown prevention with advanced diagnostics • Unified platforms in transmitters which support your reliable centered maintenance approach • Best-fit instruments with intrinsic safety and high accuracy that provide reliable data and safety to the process

A closer look: Monitoring a tank safely with an intelligent system – Automated overfill prevention system (AOPS)

A faulty level gauge can fail to alert operators at a storage depot when a storage tank is being filled to a dangerously high level. Using an independent (SIL2/SIL3-certified) automated overfill prevention system helps to reliably detect, indicate and prevent hazardous overflow of your chemical or petrochemical storage. This results in: • Significant time savings thanks to performing the filling operation of multiple tanks simultaneously without administering • Increased tank capacity thanks to reduced reaction times to shutdown • The remote automated proof test saves time and reduces effort – 16 tanks in less than 5 minutes
